^ Nice. I normally only see single birds, except when there are a few males doing rollercoaster flights to impress some females.
Best was when one shot down and took a small rodent about 20 feet in front of me as I was walking down a narrow overgrown path.
I didn't see the rodent until the bird had landed and killed it, appearing out of nowhere and dispatching it all in one action, when it spread its wings over the kill and looked back at me as if challenging me to come any closer.
I had no intention of moving - I'd stopped completely, spellbound by this incredible bird with its high-speed precision attack and amazing eyesight. After a couple of seconds looking at me it took off with the rodent in its claws.


Iberian Barbel.
